Designing Your AUP (DYA) No.2

College is about more than just going to class and getting good grades. What is your dream? How can you be sure to live a meaningful life? Are you managing your time the way you would like? Now is the time to start answering these questions in a way that shapes future semesters and ultimately prepares you for life after college. This design thinking workshop helps AUP Freshmen examine how to connect the dots between your academic interests and your values.

You will leave the workshop focused on making the most of your time at AUP.

About the GPS Program

The Global Professional Skills (GPS) program launched in the spring of 2017 as a signature program for AUP. It provides you with the opportunity to sharpen critically important skills and develop your own personal narrative throughout college that will benefit your life post-AUP.

If you are an undergraduate, degree-seeking student, you will be encouraged to participate in co-curricular activities during your time at AUP — whether it's volunteering with an international NGO, interning with your dream fashion designer, or participating in one of AUP's many clubs. You generate a co-curricular record (CCR) that registers all of your activities from semester to semester and connects them with your transcripts to boost your career prospects after graduation.
